At the heart of every sun the blackness, At the heart of every joy the fear, At the heart of each black hole imprisoned light. The universe obsessed With warring day and night. Inspired by current discoveries and theories of the origin and fate of the universe, the beauties and mysteries of spacetime, and man"s relationship with the cosmos, Darklight is a collection of 77 poems - ranging from classical to free contemporary - that marvels at everything from the microscopic to the infinite.
